Hi Mark,

Any chance of getting QuickCheck 2.7.3 in there? It has a number of nice
improvements over 2.6, the biggest of which is generic shrinking to make
it easier to get minimal counterexamples (changelog:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/QuickCheck-2.7.3/changelog).

One complication is that we switched to a different random number
generator because of some flaws with the one in System.Random.
So we would also need to pull in the tf-random package
(http://hackage.haskell.org/package/tf-random-0.4).
